Press > INVISIGOTH IS SIGNED TO PROGROCK RECORDS AND RELEASES THE ALBUM “ALCOHOLOCAUST”
31 Jul 2011
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA 8 March 2007 – Recorded in 2006, the record reveals, at the same time, a prodigious and profound respect and iconoclasm for the music that it post-dates. Some call it “progressive metal” or “art rock,” yet Invisigoth transcends these attempted reductions and speaks for itself – all the while echoing the revelation of the antique and exotic that is the hallmark of their singular, yet universal, expression.
With new inspirations literally in hand, Cage and Viggo decided to construct a musical statement with authentic, albeit primal, vision and purpose. Invisigoth became that animation incarnate. A concept for an album was culled from their tormented experiences and research. Entitled, "Alcoholocaust", the record explores the trials and tribulations of both protagonists in their search, and eventual discovery, of their artistic, animal, and rather Roman, natures.
Invisigoth had this to say; "We sought to work with a company that was not only sympathetic to the needs and desires of the artist, but also one whose primary motive is to serve the greater compositional medium that is music, by providing a true alternative
to the mainstream. ProgRock is that company and we are delighted to be in business with them.".
“I love to be surprised and this album certainly took me by surprise, in a good way. Very creative use of vocals and harmonies and powerful songwriting, it isn’t often anymore that I hear something really fresh, but Invisigoth managed to do it.”, Shawn Gordon, President of ProgRock Records said.
”Alcoholocaust” is the ProgRock Records debut release from Invisigoth and can be found at http://www.therecordlabel.net/progressive-rock/invisigoth/ . This album sounds a bit like modern Porcupine Tree meets Soundgarden with a splash of Kevin Gilbert, but with a sound all their own. The album is available for immediate order and will ship in late March and be available at your favorite brick and mortar retailer on May 22, 2007. Presales are discounted $2 on the ProgRock Records site until the album starts shipping.
